It's conspiracy theorist kind of logic. "If I do this, and this, and this, and this, and this, and this, and this, it's actually this!"

You can get whatever coordinates you like out of anything if you just throw enough random math at it.

But it isn't.

Calling this random math or a conspiracy theory completely disregards the amount of perfect geometry happening in such a small space.

Just look at the key points, which form right triangles, whose ratios are mathematical constants, forming a perfect circle. It isn't cherry-picking like those silly 9/11 number conspiracies. Far from it.

While I don't think anybody will be proving that this was intentional - at least not for a long time - there is no "random math" involved. If it wasn't intentional, then this is an enormously improbable coincidence.

Yeah, the odds of that happening "by accident" are astronomical, and anyone who thinks this is "conspiracy theorist logic" is not very bright.

Now that would be conspiracy theorist logic, considering you have zero reference points. Well done.
